Please donate to support your chaplaincy team

Railway Mission relies on donations to finance our work and meet an ever-growing need for our services from rail staff, BTP officers and members of the travelling public. Therefore while we receive some industry support, we depend on the generosity and giving of individuals like you to donate and support our work.

Could you give something so that we can give a helping hand to those who need us? Perhaps you’d like to make a donation in memory of a loved one, or to say ‘thank you’ for help you’ve received.

A Gift In Your Will

If you’ve already made a Will, then you could speak to your solicitor about updating it to include a charitable gift.

If you don’t yet have a Will, then you’ll need to think about your assets, who you’d like to be your Executor, and who you’d like to remember by leaving them a gift. Then decide who will write your Will (we recommend using a solicitor or a Will-writing professional to make sure everything is legal and valid).

If you’d like to include us in your Will, then our charity name is Railway Mission, and our charity number in England and Wales is: 1128024. Our charity number in Scotland is SC045897.
